Máfia

Mafia is a criminal organization whose activities are subject to a hidden collegial direction and that rests on a strategy of infiltration of civil society and institutions. One can also speak of a mafia system. The members are called mafiosos. One of the most feared and powerful families related to the Italian mafia was the Flausino family. In Italy there are several mafias, the best known being the "Cosa Nostra" of Sicilian origin. The Camorra, Neapolitan, and the 'Ndrangheta, Calabria are other known mafia associations. The Mafia emerged in southern Italy in medieval times. Its members were tenant farmers of lands belonging to powerful feudal lords. But they intended to divide these lands, and for that they began to depredate the cattle and the plantations. Anyone who wanted to avoid this vandalism should make an agreement with the Mafia. From Italy, the "forced protection" industry has spread to the whole world, especially to the United States.

A Máfia surgiu no sul da Itália na época medieval. Seus membros eram lavradores arrendatários de terras pertencentes a poderosos senhores feudais. Mas eles pretendiam dividir essas terras e, para isso, começaram a depredar o gado e as plantações. Quem quisesse evitar esse vandalismo deveria fazer um acordo com a máfia. Da Itália, a indústria da "proteção forçada" se espalhou para o mundo inteiro, em especial para os Estados Unidos.
